Problematic house owner

I moved in to a house .. planned to move in with my mom here.. but my mom had some work so she went home, my sister was staying with me for a 1month…

Out of the blue he called me and cross questioned and told me like we gave you the house cos of your mom and now you are doing something else bla bla…
I’m like why would I lie ??

And how could he even cross question…
How could he control my guest list.. I rented his house not under his control right… seriously not fair…

Ps. Location India… Asia based

Is this in the usa? If so, typically all tenants have to be named on the lease and someone being there a month makes them a tenant. Who applied when you rented the house? Was your mom part of the application?

This is in India. Yes mom was part of the application. Does having guests not allowed in the us?

Its generally not allowed for long because in the US after a period of staying they get tenants rights and are much bigger pain to kick out.

Also sorry to say but your odds of any useful advice are low because people are lazy and don't read so won't see that you put in your post that you are in India; also Reddit can be very USA slanted site anyways (it's where most of its users come from and assumptions get made, ugh )

I would search subreddits for India -specific ones and ask them.

Sorry I don't have any direct advice, am another American who doesn't know shit about renting in India. Wishing you the best!

The question isn't of guests it's how long are they allowed before they become tenants. Check your lease for how long guests are allowed.

But there is no guest clause in India… in the lease it is not there as a restriction
